Raccoon, download apk from play store to your pc^^ - Miscellaneous Android Development

Here's a handy java based tool in which you can download your favorite apks from the play store.
It will ask for your login information, you can search apps and save the apk to a folder on your pc.
It works great!
Raccoon
Downloading Android apps to PC from Google Play Store has never been an easy process. Google has pretty strict policies in place to prevent users from downloading apps to any other device or computer that isn’t an Android device. Android does allow you to sideload an app’s APK file and install from there, but these APKs are usually hosted on third party sites. Back in November 2013, I reviewed APK Downloader, a web based service that enables you to download apps from Google Play to your computer via pointing its URL. Raccoon is a similar application that lets you do the same directly from your desktop. The Java based application requires your Google Account credentials, and allows you to download all non-paid apps to your PC without any hassle.

Don’t let Raccoon’s simple interface fool you. The program is fairly powerful at what it does. In order to use this program, you will need the latest Java Runtime version on your computer which you can download from Java’s official site. Afterwards, you can download Raccoon directly from the developer’s website. It’s a portable application that’s available in JAR and EXE variants.
After launching Raccoon, you’re presented with its barebones window which carries three input fields at the center: Username, Password and Android ID. You will need a valid Google Play account and (optionally) an Android ID to get Raccoon up and running. If you don’t have Android ID you can simply leave this field blank and Raccoon will automatically create a pseudo ID for you.
Sign in
After signing in, Raccoon will enable you to download any kind of app from Play Store that’s linked to your account region. It doesn’t let you download any paid apps though. To get started, the first thing you need to do is copy the Play Store link of the app that you wish to download. For instance, if you want to download Facebook’s app, open its Play Store page, and then copy the link from the URL bar and paste it in the Search field of Raccoon. Alternatively, you can also simply type Facebook and the tool will display relevant suggestions, although the URL option can be much more convenient.
After pertaining results are displayed, Raccoon gives you details about the app’s size, published date, price, total installs and rating, and allows you to open its Google Play page, view Permissions and/or download the APK file.
Raccoon downloads each app to the archive it creates to a folder from where you run the app. The archive is basically a download folder that can contain multiple versions of downloaded apps and that is able to automatically update all contained apps according to the developer. Here’s a screenshot demonstrating the Facebook app being downloaded to the archive.
In a nutshell, if you need to download APKS from Google Play to your computer, then Raccoon is certainly one of the better options that you have for that.

The idea for a “personalized Love Calculator” I got from one of these TV commercials for expensive Love Calculator apps. Why not to make an own Love Calc, which basically works exactly as useless as a “normal” Love Calculator , but with the small but important “fix” that it returns 100% when two special names are entered. That would be a nice gift idea for your significant other for christmas .
Who directly wants to jump to the files, just scroll to the end of this post. There is a ZIP file containing a ready-to-compile B4A project, made for a 720×1280 resolution.
Since I am not a Java coder, I was not in the mood to set up the SDK, IDE, paths and so on for a one time programming in Java. So I searched for a alternative for creating Android apps with as less setting up work as possible. I found B4A: Basic for Android. This is a development environment in which you can develop native Android apps in a Basic-like language. It also has a graphical GUI editor. One big advantage is is that no setting up of paths etc. is needed, since B4A offers the oppertunity of “Remote Compilation”, where the program is uploaded to a server where it is compiled. So you just need to install the 30 days trial version and you’re good to create an app (the Java JDK only needs to be installed). The only downside of this program is, that for a few seconds after opening the app, a message box is shown that the app was created with the trial version.
So here now a short guide, how to make your own, personalized Love Calculator:
Installation of the software:
1) Download and install the JDK (here)
2) Download and install the Basic 4 Android Trial (here).
3) Get the B4A Bridge App from the Play Store (here). This app is needed to test the compiled APK later.
When the softwares are installed, you can directly begin with the app itself .
Adjusting the app:
When you start the IDE from B4A the first time, you land in screen like this:
Via Source->Open Source you can load the project from the Love Calculator (at the end of this post). Then the source code should be loaded.
Now you can insert the “special” names : Just replace the value of the variable name1 and name2. If for example the names Dog and Cat should produce a 100% result, the following lines have to be changed like the following:
Code:
‘HIER DIE NAMEN ERSETZEN!!!
name1=”Cat”
name2=”Dog”
Te first line is simply a comment and means “Change the names here!”. This is the only part in the whole code which need to be changed. In the actual program it does not matter, which name is on which position or if written with capitals or not.
I adjusted the GUI to a display resolution of 720×1280. If you need an other resolution, you have to to this in the “Designer”.
Via “New Variant” you can create a new resolution. In the “Abstract Designer” you can scale and adjust the position of the UI elements. I won’t go here too much into details, if you have any questions, just write .
Save the project and choose “Release” from the dropdown list right beside the blue arrow. Then start the B4A Bridge App on your mobile. Click on “Start Bluetooth”. Then go to Tools – B4A Bridge – Connect (Bluetooth) in the IDE. First click Find devices and then your phone. Then you should be connected with your phone. Now you just need to hit the blue arrow and you’re done! The app should be installed several seconds later.
The compiled .apk should be placed in the project folder under /Objects . Surely this App won’t win an innovation or design award, but thanks to the little “Fix”, which gives a specific name combination always 100%, it is a nice little gimmick, especially for christmas time .
The ZIP-file of the project you can find on this site.
